I lived in Valbella for a month... Can I claim some Swissness? I eat a lot of Lind Chocolate... and Yes, I drank grappa while I was there.

Grappa?
Surely the only true Swiss drink is Feldschlössen...

You have no idea. I went to an outdoor concert in Engleberg, and it was truly an awe inspiring experience.

Being lucky it's a relative thing success is in our mind and actions

I'm from Cadenazzo. I left CH in 2002, supposedly for one year.... it's 2010 and still here in California!

I'm having my mom sending me regularly grappa so I can have my all time favorite "corretto grappa"!!!

Ciao

PS, in my profile you can find some more info about what I do etc...
